“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind”; and, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
Gustave (Gus) Philip Morgan, V Son | Born: 9/26/18 Parents: Louise & Gus Morgan Grandparents: Triff & John Cook; Carlton & Jerry Davis; Winn & Philip Morgan EPHESIANS 3:16–19
I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge — that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Jackson Lee (Jack) Morris Son | Born: 8/23/18 Parents: Lindsey & Seth Morris Siblings: Lucy (3) Grandparents: Mattelyn & Alan Morris; Elaine & Virgil Ursrey LUKE 10:27

Everly Kate (Evie) Weinstein Daughter | Born: 8/14/18 Parents: Sara Kristen & Joshua Weinstein Grandparents: Peggy & Vern Creighton; Charlotte & Jay Kulkin; Barry Milam; Michael Weinstein MATTHEW 5:14–16
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
10:00 James Lagree Brannon Son | Born: 8/9/18 Parents: April & Kyle Brannon Siblings: Vivian (1.5) Grandparents: Susan & Brent Brannon; Sandy & Jim Webb PHILIPPIANS 1:9–11
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ— to the glory and praise of God.
William Porterfield (Porter) Ezzell Son | Born: 6/15/18 Parents: Caitlin & William Ezzell Siblings: Virginia (4); Ellery (2) Grandparents: Debbe Ezzell; Debra & Doug Ezzell; Sally & Don Lighter ROMANS 12:15–18
Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited. Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
Baptisms Harold Edward (Driver) Maude, IV Son | Born: 7/22/18 Parents: Missy & Tug Maude Siblings: Davis (5) Grandparents: Cathy & Pete Maude; Nancy & Terry McGuirk 1 SAMUEL 1:27–28
“I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD.” And he worshiped the LORD there.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
11:15 Mila James Caswell Daughter | Born: 6/8/18 Parents: Kaitlyn & Charlie Caswell Grandparents: Betsy & Charlie Caswell; Nancy & Jeff Karcher; Julie & Ken Thorpe MATTHEW 5:14–16
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
Hadley Elizabeth Heimburger Daughter | Born: 12/20/17 Parents: Kristen Aycock-Heimburger & Richard Heimburger Grandparents: LeNan & David Aycock; Elizabeth Heimburger PSALM 139:14 –16
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
BAPTISM AT PEACHTREE At Peachtree, we celebrate both infant and believer baptism. For infants, baptism marks the official beginning of the partnership between the church and the family to raise the child as Jesus’ disciple. When a child is baptized, the parents make a profession of faith on behalf of their child. As the parents claim that Jesus is their Lord and Savior, they also make commitments to raise their child to know Jesus Christ. In baptism, a child becomes a part of the church family, but they must one day make their own decision to follow Jesus Christ.
Requirements
The child being baptized must be 18 months of age or younger.
At least one parent must be an active and local member of Peachtree Presbyterian Church.
At least one parent must attend a Baptism Workshop prior to the Baptism Sunday selected (even if prevously attended for another child).
To register your child, visit: PeachtreeChurch.com/Baptism
Milestones
Just as families keep in touch about joys and sorrows, our church family at Peachtree wants to do the same. During your prayers this week, we ask you to lift up these people to God.
